Diffident is intended to be a diff editor that allows you to adjust the files you are comparing. It is also intended to be a patch editor. Currently, Diffident is a colored side-by-side diff viewer that works in a terminal.

AntTask-XMLDiff is an Ant task for calculating the differences between XML files or directories of XML files at an XML (as opposed to file) level. It uses XML Unit in order to achieve this. It produces a diff report in both XML and HTML format.

Sefira library is meant to provide a well tested and reasonably optimized implementations of some tree comparison algorithms, so that they can be tried out in practical applications. Finding the largest common subtree of two ordered labeled trees is a problem with increasing applications (e.g. in XML processing and computational biology), on which substantial progress has been made in recent years. However, papers on tree comparison may not be available without subscription to the appropriate journals and even when they are, they generally don't contain executable code, so using the new algorithms is non-trivial. Also, there isn't one "best" algorithm yet. Distance definitions differ, and even for the same edit distance, time complexity can be measured on different tree features.

JDiff is a tool which performs folder recursive comparisons and file comparison based on Myer's minimum set of differences algorithm. Based on this file comparison algorithm, it also provides a 3-way merge, which can run without a graphical interface. JDiff is released as an auto-executable jar file.

Grep.pm is a much-modified fork of tcgrep. It understands context, matching from the start or end of a file (with a line count or byte count), and features size limits and highlighting. It extends matching to boolean expressions, structuring regular expressions, or even arbitrary pieces of Perl code. It can perform basic stemming and synonym-expansion in regular expressions (using expansyn). It also handles \0-lines, paragraphs, file slurping, directory recursion, and compressed files. It can act either as a Perl module or a command-line program. Grep.xchange is a support program taking grep or Grep.pm input and applying an expression at each grep match to the files specified in the grep output. This expression can be arbitrary Perl modifying e.g. just the line of the match with s///g, or operate against the current pos() position in the whole file. Grep.xchange --modified goes one step further and replaces the matched lines with the (edited) text from the grep output. Changes are logged in diff -u format and can be revoked/redone with patch.

Oxygen XML Diff is a complete solution for comparing and merging XML files. It offers both directory and file comparison, six different diff algorithms, and multiple levels of comparison. The comparison can also be performed inside ZIP-based archives (ZIP, JAR, ODF, OOXML). Oxygen XML Diff includes two specialized XML-aware comparison algorithms: XML Accurate, tuned for precise comparison, and XML Fast, tuned for speed at the expense of some accuracy.

Replo is a cross-platform utility for performing syntactically-aware diff, find, and replace operations. It is similar to IntelliJ's "structural find and replace" feature but allows for configurable grammars. With Replo, users can compare, detect, and replace idiomatic structures without worrying about irrelevant stylistic inconsistencies. Common grammars (e.g. C, C++, C#, Java, Ruby) are provided, but users can also leverage ANTLR to define their own.

DiffKit is an application and a framework, for comparing two tables of data, field-by-field. The tables can come from any of a number of sources, such as an RDBMS or CSV file, and DiffKit is able to mix different kinds of sources in the same diff operation. It is like the Unix diff utility, but for tables instead of lines of text. Diffs can be reported at both the row and field level, and the user can configure what to compare, how to compare it, what to ignore). DiffKit is highly customizable with respect to the sources of tabular data, the details of the comparison, and the characteristics of the output (diff report).

sqlite dbdiff is a simple command line program for showing the differences between SQLite databases. It shows the differences between table names, schema, row counts, and data. The current implementation uses a symmetric difference; more modes may be added in the future.
